I thought of same thing but I don't think we can expect him to match Portis's blocking style; he was mean to defenders and I don't see Guice being that although I love his running style, based on youtube highlights of course..

We’ll get a compensatory pick in 2020 after he leaves in 2019. Meanwhile we will need a swing tackle - a very very important position.
If Nsekhe works well at guard this year then that’s gravy in my mind. I still expect the Skins to make a move at G somehow, independent of this Christian pick. I am happy to have depth at one of the most important positions on the field.

I'm intrigued by this pick and I agree with you about being prepared for future so I like this move.
And for those guys who talked about going BPA vs need; maybe I should have been more clear with that statement, there needs to be balance of course although, imo it all depends on how you rank that player vs other player. Let's say you value one LB highly - i.e., 2nd round talent available in 3rd round vs a guard who is ranked as 3rd or below round talent - you have to go with LB because there's a better chance of getting above average player at those positions which are safe only for next 1 or 2 years just like our DB positions. If latter player rank closely to our next best player available then it would make more sense if we go with player that can fill in our needs.
